18.0.0.2 Aug 07, 2024 *Added: The <solidline> and <dotline> HTML tags support color in RGB format using the <solidline RRGGBB> or <dotline RRGGBB> syntax, which indicates the color to show the solid or dotted line *Added: The ExecuteTemplate() method can return the value of a variable. For instance, the eXSurface's PointToPosition method uses variables by reference which is not supported in PowerBuilder. For that you can use a code like ExecuteTemplate("dim x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);x") that returns the x-position (surface's coordinates) of the current mouse pointer. In the same manner you can use ExecuteTemplate("dim x,y;x=-1;y=-1;PointToPosition(x,y);y") to return the y-position. *Fixed: No control frame is shown in design-mode under MS Excel's spreadsheet 18.0.0.1 Jun 10, 2024 *Added: Update the samples to support x64 configuration (/COM version) *Fixed: The expropertieslist/com fails if the user is trying to spy the control (x64 version only, AllowSpy property, browses the object by drag and drop) *Fixed: The top-menu items get smaller once it gets resized 17.0.0.2 Aug 09, 2023 *Added: SendCommand property specifies whether the control sends the WM_COMMAND to the parent-window once the user selects an item, open or close a popup-menu. The SendCommand property supports the following flags: 1 for Select event, 2 for OpenPopup event and 4 for ClosePopup event. The WPARAM parameter caries the identifier of the item, while LPARAM parameter of the WM_COMMAND message indicates the handle of the control (HWND for Select event), 2 ( for OpenPopup event ) and 3 ( for ClosePopup event ) *Fixed: The control may fail if using on VC++ dialogs, once a popup menu is shown. *Fixed: The AttachTemplate method fails if using "handle" keyword on x64 version 17.0.0.1 Mar 06, 2023 *NEW: Ability to specify the size to show the icons within the control *Added: ImageSize property specifies the size of the control' icons. By default, the ImageSize property is 16. The control's Images collection is cleared if the ImageSize property is changed, so it is recommended to set the ImageSize property before calling the Images method. *Fixed: A GPF may occur on closing the form/window/dialog if one or more events are handled by AttachTemplate method 16.0.0.1 Dec 11, 2023 *Added: DPI-Aware Support *Added: New visual appearance for all internal icons to support high DPI resolution (100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200% and 300%) *Fixed: The internal icons are stretched and look distorted when DPI scaling is not 100% 15.0.0.1 Apr 26, 2022 *Added: PowerBuilder 21.0 sample *Fixed: The "Do you want to save changes to the design of form ''? Yes, No, Cancel" message occurs in MS Access, every time the form is closed in design mode *Fixed: Clicking (Custom) property generates "Class Not Registered" error (Windows x64, 'Looking for object with CLSID:{7EBDAAE1-8120-11CF-899F-00AA00688B10}') 14.0.0.1 Apr 14, 2021 *Added: Documentation for eXMenu/JS (http://exontrol.com/rhelp.jsp?product=exmenu&config=/js) *Added: ExMenu.pdf (include the control's documentation in PDF format) *Added: The Images method supports the Microsoft ImageList ( mscomctl.ocx, MSComctlLib.ImageList type) object directly. Shortly, you can define the control's images by calling Images(ImageList1.Object). The ImageList1.Object returns the object of MSComctlLib.ImageList type. The Microsoft ImageList object is available for /COM on x86 and x64 machines (starting from Access 2016) 13.0.0.2 Dec 04, 2019 *Fixed: Prevents showing the "This application is about to initialize ActiveX controls that might be unsafe. If you trust the source of this file, select OK and the controls will be initialized using your current workspace settings." warning message while the control is running into MS Office forms or user-forms. 13.0.0.1 Jul 24, 2019 *Added: Closes automatically the opened popup menus as soon as cursor hovers a different non-popup item (after a short delay). *Fixed: The drop down menu is not closed once you select an regular-item ( OpenOnClick property is exAlwaysClick ). *Fixed: The item's drop down menu is not shown delayed, once you hover the item. 12.0.0.1 Jun 18, 2018 *NEW: Ability to executes x-script code ( including events ), from a string, file or a safe array of bytes. This feature allows you to load the control's visual appearance and behavior, without having to write any line of code. The x-script code can save EBNs, icons, pictures into BASE64 encoded strings, and so everything can be put into a single file, that should be invoked by AttachTemplate method. This feature allows you to run any x-script code for any configuration of the component (/COM, /NET or /WPF). *Added: AttachTemplate method executes the giving x-script code, and attach events if found. The x-script code can contain handle keyword that defines a handler for the specified event. For instance, the AttachTemplate("handle Click() { print(Version) }") sends the control's Version property to the debugger for display. All you need is to open the DebugView tool, and click the control. *Added: The control's Template page supports AttachTemplate so you can assign x-script code ( including events ) in design mode, and so the control's visual appearance and behavior is changed once the control is created at runtime (/COM version only). *Added: ScrollOnWheel property indicates whether the menu gets scrolled once the user rotates the mouse wheel. 11.0.0.1 Feb 12, 2018 *Fixed: The ShowPopup method shows the original popup to a different position, if the user scrolls its content. *Fixed: Corrects the shadow effect for drop down panels like filters, editors, tooltips,... on systems with DPI setting not-100% *Fixed: Can't use the sub-popup scroll buttons, if calling directly the ShowPopup method. *Fixed: The menu control fails, if scrolling the sub-levels using the mouse wheel, when OpenOnClick property is exAlwaysClick 10.0.0.2 Nov 13, 2017 *NEW: Display a placeholder for missing icons, images in HTML captions. *Added: The Key parameter of the HTMLPicture property is case insensitive, so you can display the picture using the insensitive key. For instance, <img>picA</img> is equivalent with <img>pica</img>, or <img>PICA</img> and so on. *Added: The HTML caption shows a missing image placeholder for images whose source is missing. The missing placeholder displays the index of the icon being missing, or the key of the HTML picture being missing. 10.0.0.1 Jul 26, 2017 *Added: The Version property includes the SpecialBuild number of the assembly so it provides information like Major.Minor.Build.Revison.SpecialBuild.Type... *Fixed: Prevents a memory leak when loading icons, pictures, from BASE64 encoded strings (Images method, HTMLPicture picture). *Fixed: A GPF occurs if the application is started from design mode ( demo / evaluation / trial version only ) *Fixed: Prevents "Do you want to save ..." / "Save changes...' input box, when the user opens the form in design mode, and close it. 9.0.0.5 Apr 25, 2016 *Added: Toggling the open/close state of the drop down item's submenu when the user clicks the same item ( has effect for items of the menu control, not items of sub-menus ) *Fixed: An ICO file shows as 18x18 instead of 16x16 pixels if it is loaded using the HTMLPicture method. *Fixed: Prevents showing the control's view in design mode, while running on FORTH system ( /COM version ) 9.0.0.4 Feb 10, 2016 *Added: </solidline>, </upline>, </dotline> HTML tags ends the solid, up or dotted line *Added: Prevents showing the ,.;!?'")}] characters at the beginning of a new line, when html text is word-wrapping. *Fixed: The last italic character of a HTML caption may be shown as clipped 9.0.0.3 Nov 25, 2015 *Added: Support for ActiveX over the /NET Framework ( ActiveX control written in C#, VB/NET, Regasm - Assembly Registration Tool, CSActiveX) *Added: TemplateResult property returns the result of the last call of Template property. The TemplateResultN property returns the result as numeric ( double expression ), while the TemplateResultS property returns the result of the last call of Template property, as string. *Fixed: The ExecuteTemplate property returns Variant rather than String expression. 9.0.0.2 Oct 05, 2015 *NEW: Support for EBN 1002 version. *Added: The EBN 1002 allows using skin objects with horizontal, vertical stretch and colorable/not-colorable parts of the EBNs. *Added: TemplateDef property allows defining inside variables for the Template feature ( available for /COM only, and useful to assign properties with multiple parameters, which is not supported in dBASE ) 9.0.0.1 June 03, 2015 *NEW: Windows 8.1 64-bit compatibility *Added: The /COM 64-bit version is compatible with Microsoft Office Applications: Excel 2013, Access 2013,... *Fixed: Exception Code: C0000005 shows up on MS Access, if leaving an edit field hosted by an item in the menu. 8.1.0.5 Apr 01, 2015 *New: Ability to load/save the ToString format of the menu from the Control's Internal Editor *Added: The Editor\Invoke Internal Editor\ToString section generates the code to load/save the menu using the Menu.ToString method. *Fixed: "Visual C++ Runtime Error!" occurs if using the <fgcolor> or <bgcolor> with no indicating the color. Correct is <fgcolor RRGGBB>, instead <fgcolor> 8.1.0.4 Jan 28, 2015 *Fixed: Sometimes, the menu is not closed if pressing and releasing the ALT ( menu ) key. *Fixed: Corrects the submenu's shadow when the menu is building at runtime ( improves the Refresh method ) *Fixed: The Item's Background color is showing on the item while it has the focus. 8.1.0.3 Oct 13, 2014 *Fixed: R6025 (pure virtual function call) occurs on MS Access if user presses the Enter key on an item that hosts an edit field ( AllowEdit property on True ). *Fixed: The MS Access fails if creating submenus during the Highlight event *Fixed: Aligns the submenus if the control's Border property refers an EBN object ( skin object ) 8.1.0.2 Jun 18, 2014 *Added: The Refresh method updates all visible sub-menus *Added: Prevents clearing the previously collection of items of the submenu, if the Popup property is called again with the same value. *Fixed: Pressing the Enter or Escape key while editing an item of edit type ( AllowEdit property is True ) fails. 8.1.0.1 Jan 23, 2014 *Added: The Background(exToolTipAppearance) property may specify any color to apply to tooltip's EBN so the control's tooltip can be shown using different colors. *Fixed: On terminal-servers (citrix), CPU-consumption varying from 1-4%, if multiple instances of the control is opened in the same time ( Exontrol.CommentWindow ) *Fixed: Removes the tooltip's shadow if time to show the tooltip is less than 250 ms, as on Windows 7, the tooltip may be displayed slower. 8.0.0.2 Dec 18, 2013 *Added: The HTML tags are case insensitive, so the < b > is equivalent with < B > *Fixed: Aligns vertically the item's images/text when it displays custom-sized pictures using the <img> tag. *Fixed: The & character is shown in the item's caption, instead underlined character. *Added: The <br> HTML tag breaks the item in multiple lines.
